"التفكير يبدأ فقط عند النقطة التي ندرك فيها استحالة اتخاذ القرار."

Simplified Meaning:

When we realize that some situations don't have a clear right or wrong answer, that's when real thinking starts. Imagine you are a ship captain facing a storm. You must decide whether to keep going or turn back. Both choices have risks: fighting the storm could save time but endanger the crew, while turning back means everyone's safe but delays the journey. Here, there's no easy choice. This tough decision-making forces you to think deeply, considering all possible outcomes and weighing what's most important. In life, these complex situations teach us to look beyond simple solutions and really understand what we're dealing with. To apply this, whenever you face a difficult choice, instead of looking for an immediate answer, take it as an opportunity to reflect and understand the situation better, which helps you grow and learn.
